E7 and Internet Browser Issues

Hi, Can anyone tell me if there is a way to stop the built in browser on E7 from using mobile versions of websites like facebook, google and ebay.
While some sites offer a link at the bottom to change to normal view, others do not and it would be nice to have it automatically do this.
I was going to start using Opera Mobile but that does the same, I know their is a debug facility to Opera so if someone knows how I can debug the broswer, then that would be appreciated.
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

i feel your pain, i dont really think you can evoke such behavior on e7 unless you find another browser. did you try something like uc browser, there are others that might bring about a more pleasurable viewing experience for you.
You know what I love about you the most, the fact that you are not me ! In love with technology and all that it can offer. Join me in discovery....

Extremely slow download speeds and internet browsing on Macbook pro

I recently got a 13"" macbook pro. System config - Maverick OS/i7 dual core/8GB RAM/750 GB HDD, Almost 690GB of free space available. I am expriencing extremely slow download and internet browsing speed. I have to wait for almost 10-12 seconds for normal sites to download. The app updates and downloads are painstakingly slow.
The internet speeds are working perfectly fine on my Windows Laptop, and even on my mobile phones. So, the there's no issue of network. Also, I have cleared safari cache etc, just to be sure. But nothing's really helping.
Can any one help me here.
Thanks !

Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If the answer is no, do that now and see whether there's any change.
Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
Log out and log back in. Any change?
Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
Again, if only Safari is involved, open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Safari, if it's checked. Any change?
Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

Functional difference between Blackberry and Internet Browser on the device

Hello:
Based on the following link, I understand the difference between the Blackberry and Internet browser (http://www.blackberryforums.com.au/forums/blackberry-general-discussion/2815-difference-between-brow...
I was wondering if there are any functional difference between the two, i.e. HTML rendering, images being broken, etc. Under Browser -> Options -> Browser Configuration, If I configure both the Blackberry and Internet browser the same way, will a particular URL behave the same?
I'm in the process of testing our mobile applications on different devices and would appreciate if you could provide the difference, if any between the 2 browsers.
Thanks:
Vishal

Hey vishalt77,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
All BlackBerry smartphones will have Internet Browser for browsing the web.
However if you're on a BlackBerry Enterprise Server, you get the BlackBerry Browser which enables you to access internal websites and secured websites.

What is World Wide Web or Internet and Internet Browser?

What is Internet and Internet Browser? I have been searching about this for a long time but all are so deep in knowledge ,simplicity does have no place!

Bridge Browser and WiFi Browser Issues???

Hey everyone,
I've had my Playbook since day one and I have been having issues that I can't seem to get resolved involving the Brdige Browser and WiFi browser.
On the Bridge Browser I can't browse to any webpages. I simply get a non-descript "Not Authorized HTTP://whatevertheurlwas.com" error message. Ive tried dozens of pages, reset the bridge, to no avail.
The other issue is with the WiFi browser. When I try to login to an Exchange 2010 OWA webmail site, I can't click certain check boxes (they arent grayed out, the clcik just wont function). Also - when I try and navigate to a SharePoint 2010 site I get an "Error - A network error has occured" message. It is accessible fine via an iPad, laptop, and desktop computer but not from the Playbook browser.
Any ideas??

I spent about 3 hours with Support on this last night.
Explanation makes sense...could not verify it yet.
Bridge Browser by default uses "Blackberry Browser" to surf the net. If this option is disabled by BES Admin (assumption here is that you are on BES), you will not be able to surf the net. If you have BIS services also, your Blackberry handset (assumption here is that you are on OS v6) tries to open a site through "Blackberry Browser" and then defaults through "Internet Browser"...which is why you are probably surf the net through your handset without any issues.
To verify this, install OS v5 and that gives you the option of picking the browser for your handset. If you get the same message after selecting "BLackberry Browser" on your phone...the above explanation can be confirmed. I am going to try it on my older Blackberry handset with OS v5 over the weekend.
Solution if the above explanation is verified:
Running the web browser in work mode
If the Allow Browser IT policy rule is set to Yes and you configure the BlackBerry® MDS Connection Service to connect a BlackBerry smartphone to the Internet and intranet, a BlackBerry® PlayBook™ tablet that is connected to the smartphone can run the web browser in work mode.
When the web browser runs in work mode, it does not use the Wi-Fi® connection that it uses when it runs in personal mode. Instead, the web browser can connect to the Internet or your organization's intranet using the smartphone's connection to the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service. The tablet encrypts any cached data that is stored on the tablet using the BlackBerry® Bridge™ work key.
A BlackBerry PlayBook tablet user can access the web browser in work mode by clicking the browser icon in the BlackBerry Bridge panel on the tablet, or by clicking on a link in a work application. When a user clicks a link in any work application, such as a link in work email messages, work calendar entries, the contact list, tasks, memos, or BlackBerry® Messenger messages, the web browser runs in work mode if any of the following conditions exist:•
No Wi-Fi connection is available•
Web address does not contain periods•
MDS Browser Domains IT policy rule includes the domain of the web address•
Web address consists of a private IP address as specified in RFC 1918•
Value of the Wi-Fi Internet Access Path IT policy rule is set to "Access through BlackBerry MDS Connection Service"
If these conditions do not exist, the web browser runs in personal mode and connects to the Internet using a Wi-Fi connection.
The web browser cannot run in work mode if it cannot access the BlackBerry MDS Connection Service.

Bluetooth Network and Internet sharing issue

I'm trying to set up a network through Bluetooth between two computers having the latest Toshiba Stack installed, and to share the Internet connection with the second computer.
On the firs computer I've set the Internet Connection Sharing, and because of this it automatically sets the TCP/IP adresses for the Bluetooth Personal Area network (192.168.0.1).
On the 2nd computer, i've set everything to obtain it automatically. Firewalls (Kaspersky) disabled.
When I connect the 2 Bluetooth devices, everything looks fine, the 2nd automatically obtains the IP adress, I can ping both computers, and the Internet also works on the 2nd computer, for a few seconds! After that, it appears like the 2nd computer is disconnected from the network... what could be the problem?
In the event viewer under the System tab, I've found Informations like these:
2nd comp:
The system detected that network adapter \DEVICE\TCPIP_{E44D18EB-91F5-4... was connected to the network, and has initiated normal operation over the network adapter.
The browser has forced an election on network \Device\NetBT_Tcpip_{E44D18EB-... because a master browser was stopped.
and at 1st comp also appeares this:
The system detected that network adapter Bluetooth...Area Network - Packet Scheduler Miniport was disconnected from the network, and the adapter's network configuration has been released. If the network adapter was not disconnected, this may indicate that it has malfunctioned. Please contact your vendor for updated drivers.

Flex and Internet Explorer issues...

Anyone seen this error and have any ideas how to resolve it?
We only get the error when we browse via Internet Explorer and
never when we visit via FireFox.....
NetConnnection.Call.Failed
description = HTTP: Status 200
details = "
http://idp06medn.d-p.com/flex2gateway/"
level = error
Channel.Connect.Failed

I suspect what is happening is that IE is returning what it is
in the local cache. I've ran into this problem a while
back - worked great everywhere but IE - same sort of
refresh approach as yours.
What I did was to append a parameter onto the HTTP
request that contains a random number. The host
ignores this parameter of course.
Every request now looks different and it will defeat
IE's lack of respect for the no-cache policy.

Windows 7 and internet connection issue

I am having a problem connecting to internet on Windows 7 OS. I have a Macbook that installed Windows 7 on Bootcamp. When I connect the DSL wire to my computer in dormitory it connects automatically. But when I go to somewhere else it doesn't connect. I also tried to connect using IP address which consists of 4-5 rows of numbers. Unfortunately, I cannot find the tab where I can enter these IP address numbers. So I was wondering if there is something wrong with my Network Driver (or may be it is missing some networking drivers).
The main reason I want to connect to the Internet in Windows system is because I need to activate Keyshot (which requires internet connection and it works only on windows platform). My teacher said if the IP system is different on the Windows installed Macintosh, then it may not activate the product. So I was wondering if my Windows networking system works differently from Windows system on normal PC. If so how to fix this connection problem. Sorry if my question is too complicated.
But again, I am able to connect on my windows at home. But this connection is still not allowing me to activate the software. As I understood, this program requires normal internet connection of Windows. I don't know what is wrong with my computer.

Thanks for the direction. Did you mention the Bootcamp forum within this Apple.com or are you talking about a forum that exists outside of apple.com (maybe some website solely devoted to Bootcamp or windows issues)?

Internet Browser Issues

The issue is......it sucks. Can we download a different mobile browser? If so, how do we unzip it if it's a zip file, how do we install it and get it up and running? I can't watch videos or listen to music with this crappy browser and I can't log into a few of my fav. Websites.

use your blackberry Browser and go to the following URL : http://mini.opera.com/
then select I accept / OK.

My Time Capsule WiFi connection and internet connection issue

My Time Capsule WiFi connection to other devices works fine, but for some reason it can not connect to the internet only when "it feels like it",it will go in and out showing that its connect (green dot on airport utilities) then literaly the next second it disconnected (showing a yellow dot on airport utility) and it does that continuesly sometimes it stops doing for a couple of hours. I basically did every thing like reseting it, unplugging wait for what ever time, and it still does the same thing. i do have ethernet cable connect to the Time Capsule. Also sometimes my airport utilities say it cant find my Time Capsule (rarely) . So obviously i dont have a clue whats going on. PLEASE HELP

You have an issue with the local network. Pings to your local network device should be in the order of 5-10ms tops..
Look at your first line.. 2293ms that is over 2sec for the local router to respond.. but it is likely that little box that is the problem. You will get some websites simply time out if they take that long to respond.
Let me recommend you either get some help from ATT or get a local technician to fix it. There are other better ways to connect things.. in the end getting it cabled with ethernet is the best. Buy a long long ethernet cable if you want to have a test.. so you can plug the TC into the modem. Bypass the HPNA over cable slug.

IMac and internet sharing issue

Under System Preferences_Internet & Sharing_Sharing, I have the internet sharing box checked, along with screen sharing. Whenever I turn on my computer, the internet sharing is disabled, although the box is still checked. Once I re-check the box, it starts up again. What gives?

IMac and internet connection issue

Dear Forum members,
I have a number of iMac's. However on one of them when a try and connect to a certain site, I get "Safari can't connect to server" message. It also says safari can't open the page "http://www.somewebsite.com/" because Safari can't connect to the server "www.somewebsite.com".
Please note www.somewebsite.com is just a made up name.
When I googled around it seems to indicate a firewall is blocking this URL. So I did the following:
Make sure OSX firewall is turned off - it always was.
Tried to flush the cache by typing dscacheutil -flushcache but to no avail.
Tried accessing using Firefox - same result
Any suggestions on how I can fix this issue.
I am running OSX Version 10.7.2, Safari 5.1.2
Thanks
Max

Verizon Fios and internet connection issue for ONLY some of my devices

Lost my internet connection last night for about half of my devices (iMac, iPad, Kindle) but the funny thing is that the other devices are able to connect to the internet at the same time.
The Verizon Fios router is MI424WR with dual antennae. I have a Time Capsule hooked up via ethernet to the Verizon router and am using the TC as a wireless access point.
As I am not computer knowledgable, could this happen if there was a firmware update on the Fios router? Could the Fios router allow only certain devices access while denying access to other devices to the internet? It seems that if only one device can access the internet, the system does work but there is a "gatekeeper" that is not allowing access.

No, you use the airport utility not Network Preferences which is your local computer setup.
Setup of the TC you need to select it in the airport utility.. on either a Mac or in a phone or ipad.
When you open it click on the TC and go to the edit tab and check all the details. eg the bridge is here.
Go to the wireless tab to setup wireless.
I recommend a change of wireless name if you do not use names that are short, no spaces and pure alphanumeric. do so.
See how you go without a factory reset but if that doesn't work then a reset is in order.
